"الفهم الذاتي هو جذر كل تقدم"
— Alain de Botton
Simplified Meaning:
Knowing yourself well is key to making improvements in your life. For example, imagine you have a hard time getting along with your coworkers. If you take the time to understand why certain things upset you, you can work on those feelings and handle situations better. This self-awareness helps you see what changes you need to make and how to grow. Just like in history, when inventors knew their own strengths and weaknesses, they could work on them to create amazing things. By knowing yourself, you can focus on areas that need improvement and build on your strengths, leading to better success in whatever you do. Self-understanding is like a map that guides you to where you want to go in life.
